The problem is that the AMD64 kernel is built with gcc 4.0 and the archive in unstable has switched to gcc 4.1 as the default. I'm not sure the best solution to this. It's clearly a bug, but it isn't really OpenAFS's bug. It's really a bug in the kernel headers for AMD64 (and possibly other platforms?) which do not explicitly use gcc-4.0 and instead use whatever the default version of gcc is. If you look for the line starting with CC in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.16-2-amd64-k8 and replace gcc with gcc-4.0, everything builds and works correctly. I'm currently pondering who best to complain to to get this fixed; the workaround isn't exactly obvious. OpenAFS just trusts the compiler setting provided by the kernel headers. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
